You Just Can't Have It All

(album: Welcome To Poppy's - 2003)

Like a junkyard dog I bark at breezes and
Though my heart can't see the trees and
You let me in your bed when it was solace I needed
Now I'm running down these alleys
With wounds that ain't quite healing

Sometimes you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all

Now the things I know I am
Are the things I know you're seeing
But living in the past means one tends to repeat it
I know you're not in love with me
Though you're trying hard to be in

Sometimes you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all

And we made it seem so damned easy
Until the words got in the way
You make me high when you are with me
And I don't want that to go away

Ya sing your song for me
And left me in that moment
The words that traced your breath
Left me more alone in it
You're everything I want
But you don't want my shoulder

Sometimes you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all
Sometime you just can't have it all
